Summer Living at the Cabana Club
May 19th, 2008 by The Cilks
Boy, did the heat of summer ever arrive with a bang this year! Many of Pleasanton’s cabana clubs are gearing up for a busy summer, and some are already open for business. Growing up in the Midwest, the cabana club experience was foreign to me. I quickly learned, however, that not only does the club offer children a place to while away their summer; learn to swim and compete on swim teams; it also is a venue for adults to unwind after a long day at the office to hang out with their kids, share a cold beverage or dive in for some invigorating exercise.
For example, business has been booming at the Pleasanton Valley Club (PVC), which opened in mid-April. The hot nights last week had the parking lot full and the pool brimming with swimmers, young and old alike. The barbecues were in full gear, tetherball matches were underway, and the little ones were kicking their feet in the baby pool.
You can’t put a price on the peace of mind knowing that your children can swim. Swim lessons are offered by certified instructors, with sessions offered all summer long. There are a number of cabana clubs all around town - and offerings include social events for young and old alike; movie nights (just like the drive in!); concerts; talent shows and more. One club even offers courses in lifeguard certification and CPR for its members and the general public, too.
The swim teams are a social experience in themselves, offering conditioning, exercise and social activities for kids from 4 to 18. There are usually 5-8 swim meets per season against other local cabana clubs, culminating with a championship meet in late July or early August. Many of our league swimmers have progressed to become star athletes in high school and beyond because of their early years at the local cabana club.
Membership fees generally include a one-time application fee and annual dues. Some clubs offer convenient payment plans. Drop us an e-mail or give us a call if you’d like more information about a Pleasanton cabana club near you. We’ll have you in the water in no time!
